Bengaluru / Chennai, May 8: Kannada star Dhruva Sarja, nephew of Tamil actor Arjun, voiced strong support for the Indian Armed Forces and condemned those in India who express sympathy for Pakistan, following the Pahalgam terror attack and the subsequent Operation Sindoor.

In a sharp post on X, Sarja declared, “To all sympathisers of Pakistan who live in INDIA, if you are sympathising with them, you are also a terrorist.” He urged citizens to stand with the nation, warning, “Don’t become traitors of India. Being in India is believing in India. Love the country you live in or else soon we will kick you out. Jai Hind.”

The actor had earlier reacted strongly to the Pahalgam tragedy, in which 26 people, including tourists, were killed by Pakistan-backed terrorists. Describing Jammu and Kashmir as the "kalash of India," he said the region would always remain part of the country.

Calling the attack “unforgivable,” Sarja emphasized that true religion is rooted in love and peace, not violence. He offered condolences to the victims’ families and prayed for their strength, concluding his post with “Jai Hind. Jai Bharat. Jai Anjaneya.”

The actor’s comments came shortly after India launched Operation Sindoor, targeting nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The Indian Army described the mission as focused and restrained, deliberately avoiding Pakistani military targets to prevent escalation.
